The Charlie Kirk shooting is horrific, there’s been almost 50 school shootings in the US this year so far. Charlie Kirk also publicly stated that he’s ok with school shootings as long as the 2nd amendment is protected. We needed gun reform 20 years ago. We need it more today.

better metaphor: you finally beat the worst team in league history after losing to them for much of the decade, you won because the roster changed against the manager’s wishes, you shoulda fired the manager long ago, and you best fire him now if you wanna be a winning franchise
Sen. Gallego on Sen. Schumer: "When the manager takes you to the World Series, you give him another contract."

This is a good example of how Yglesias' inability to imagine change limits his political insight. He's very committed to the idea that nothing can ever change (except perhaps slowly and boringly).

“For every blue-collar Democrat we lose in western Pennsylvania, we will pick up two moderate Republicans in the suburbs in Philadelphia, and you can repeat that in Ohio and Illinois and Wisconsin.” -Chuck Schumer, July 2016 Hard to believe he's still at the helm. Not for long.

the paradox here is a “bad” economy might actually be better for young people than a “good” economy. popping the asset bubble means young people can afford a place to live. most of our problems are because policymakers prioritize boomer retirement portfolios above everything else
Man if people are this mad about the cost of living and the state of the economy right now, can you picture what things will look like if we end up with an *actually* bad economy? Because this economy is, largely speaking, fine. Not great but certainly not terrible.

very funny how he's being presented as a Machiavellian mastermind when Trump raised gas prices to $18 a gallon and repeatedly shot himself in the dick. Where my Wonk Experts scanning Senate Minority Leader WAR when the President has the worst approval ratings in 80 years??
Want change? @SenSchumer took a brutal map and designed a 56-seat Senate majority. Could anyone else have done this? Isn’t this exactly the change we wanted? And what effective leadership looks like?

This is why the people of Texas voted for Gina Hinojosa to be their Governor. She’s able to take someone out so easily.

Progressives fully backing Van Hollen despite him not actually being that progressive just shows once again which faction is actually willing to compromise for the greater good
Chris Van Hollen is the son of American diplomats, ran as the more moderate candidate for MD-SEN, defeating progressive Donna Edwards. He formerly ran the DCCC and DSCC. He's hardly some kind of fire breathing progressive. He just has actual ideas unlike Chuck Schumer.

Your periodic reminder that when this war started, bombing a hospital was a major controversy, and Israel & its defenders said it was blood libel to suggest its forces would do it.

Guess the online right isn’t quite ready to admit TPUSA has always been a scammy content farm out to fool naive evangelical boomers into thinking megachurch conservatism has major youth buy-in.

AOC being at -3 with independents after being one of conservatives top targets for the past seven years is more impressive than Ossoff being at +4 before they even really start hammering him nationally
Net favorability among Independents: 🟩Jon Ossoff +4 🟥Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez -3 🟥Josh Shapiro -4 🟥Pete Buttigieg -8 🟥Gavin Newsom -18 🟥Kamala Harris -19 🟥Marco Rubio -19 🟥Ron DeSantis -23 🟥MTG -29 🟥Ted Cruz -31 🟥Tucker Carlson -33 🟥JD Vance -34 🟥Donald Trump, Jr. -47 11/9-11/11 Link: d3nkl3psvxxpe9.cloudfront.ne…

He gets graded on such an insane curve. He celebrated Trump and JD winning! He stormed the capital for him in 2021! He’s the most blatant flip-flopper in America, he doesn’t tell you anything about discontent with Trump that you couldn’t get from reading a poll.
I dunno, folks. It seems like this frequent thing we do where mainstream people credit Nick Fuentes for his trenchant analysis could ultimately come with some negative consequences.

I’ve just checked, and Hannity also claimed to be leaving the Catholic Church in 2017, 2019 and this April.
“As of today, I no longer consider myself a Catholic” Fox News’ Sean Hannity makes it pretty clear: Trump comes before everything, even over his religion. It’s a cult.

once again, not libbing out, but i think that having a diversity of jobs and therefore diverse perspectives in the senate is a pretty good thing. we need more normal ass people in leadership
that’s MY democratic senate majority

Democrats fail to call for a recorded vote and GOP passes its bill that cuts veteran disability benefits and forces veterans to pay more to use VA home loan benefits … on Veterans Day This is the type of thing that would ideally be paid attention to and handled by party leadership. In this case, that would be Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Whip Katherine Clark. This is less than 24 hours after they failed to whip members on a vote to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, which failed by a 210-204 vote margin with 11 absent Dem members.
some confusion here about what exactly happened. but this is another black eye for Democrats. two in two days.
